compelling reason to *not* select proc filesystem for kernel?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



  i'm in the middle of writing a lesson regarding the proc filesystem
and i was wondering about any compelling reasons to *not* select the
proc filesystem for the kernel you're building if you're working with
a fairly new kernel source tree.

  the only reason i can come up with is if you're building a *really*
tiny embedded system that is stripped and minimal to the point where
it's unnecessary, but even *that* doesn't sound convincing.

  thoughts?
